The story, neutrally told

Centre · 2Marvel Comics announced a new Captain Marvel series centred on Carol Danvers at New York Comic Con on 9 October 2026. Centre · 1Stephen Wacker, Marvel Comics' new Editor-in-Chief, revealed it at his first Bullpen Bulletins! panel, according to Collider. Centre · 2G. Willow Wilson will write the series and Rachael Stott will illustrate it; Screen Rant describes Wilson as co-creator of Kamala Khan and Collider cites her earlier work on Black Cat and Ms. Marvel.

Centre · 2The first issue goes on sale in May 2027. Centre · 1Collider reports the series will be broken out from the current Avengers run by Chip Zdarsky and Marco Checchetto. Centre · 1Screen Rant says the first artwork shows Carol relaxed, jacket over her shoulder and wearing sunglasses, with the caption "back to work", and that Marvel teased a long-gathering foe she must stop.

Centre · 2Both outlets note that Brie Larson's Captain Marvel is currently missing in action in the MCU, and Screen Rant adds she is not confirmed for Avengers: Doomsday. Centre · 2Screen Rant calls the book both a "miniseries" and an "ongoing"; Collider calls it an ongoing run, so the format is not consistently described.

Every sentence links to the reporting it rests on. The pill in front of each says where its sources sit: Left, Centre or Right when one side supplies at least half of them, Mixed when they are evenly split. The number is how many outlets it cites.

Emphasis
Creative team, May 2027 date, MCU absence; Screen Rant adds comic continuity and artwork.
Leaves out or plays down
Neither gives a plot beyond a teased villain; Collider omits the artwork and Screen Rant omits the Avengers spin-out detail.
